All the patients were performed with Yacovino repositioning maneuver and the effective rate were evaluated by Dix-Hallpike tests.ResultAmong the nine ASC-BPPV patients, 2 cases were successfully controlled by the first maneuver, 2 cases by the second time, and the nystagmus of 1 case was disappeared after 1 months' follow-up.
